Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband by Devocean

After Brook finished speaking, he suddenly added, “You know, this friend I’m taking with me. You can catch up with her.” Jayden sensed his ulterior motive but didn’t take it seriously. “Looking forward to it,” he said.

Debora prodded Brook to clear out his things so she could use his office. With a grim expression, Brook complied and left with her. Jayden stayed behind, heading for the elevator. Thoughts of Elyse occupied his mind as he checked his phone for messages. Finding none from Elyse, he couldn’t help but purse his lips. Was she still upset?

As the elevator doors parted, a man with a laptop bag awaited. He addressed Jayden respectfully, “Mr. Owen, I’m here to pick you up.” Exiting the elevator, Jayden continued to stare at his phone, musing, “Tobin, did you send the gift as planned?”

Tobin Carman responded, “It’s en route. Mrs. Owen will receive it before the party begins.” Jayden hoped the gift would bring her joy.

“There’s a meeting you need to attend, sir. We have 40 minutes before it starts. We should head there promptly,” Tobin said, checking his watch.
